Superficial
Zia Aug 2014
If you think you know me
- think again.
If you say you see me
- look again.
If you think you heard me,
were you even listening?
If you say you did,
can you tell me?

What were the words I never uttered yet was fully expressed with my eyes?
What pain did my voice convey when all you saw were laughter and smiles?

Don't let your eyes deceive you
There's more to me than what you see
I do seem okay, don't I?
SUPERFICIALLY.

A lot of people hide their troubles in their smiles and build walls of laughter to mask their pain. It's sad but true.

I keep coming back

I say no.
Not anymore.
I'm done.
I've had enough.

Then I see that smile.
